Both of these sides suffered Capital One Cup eliminations during the week, with Wigan's defeat by Bradford more alarming than Tottenham's loss at Norwich, although that defeat did highlight a problem that must bother André Villas-Boas. Spurs are still not scoring as many goals as they should be, with the top scorer Jermain Defoe still guilty of missing many chances, Emmanuel Adebayor out of favour and Clint Dempsey not yet fitting in. Gareth Bale and Aaron Lennon can be counted on to continue creating chances but hope for Wigan comes from the fact that Spurs are not sure to take them. Paul Doyle
